Details

Location:

About 31 miles northeast of Kamas off Hwy 150

Length:

2 miles oneway

Difficulty:

Difficult

Elevation Change:

1700

Season:

June to October

Useful Map(s):

USGS Quads: Mirror Lake and Hayden Peak

Additional Details:

An easy hike, although the trail is obscure in a couple of places and quite rocky between Fehr and Hoover Lakes. One spot where it is easy to lose the trail is in the meadow south of Fehr Lake. Avoid following the ORV tracks in the meadow (which lead to the Murdock Basin Road) and instead bear south into the woods. A small sign points the way into the woods. Hiking back from Fehr Lake, several trails lead up the hill to the highway and it is easy to get on the wrong one. The only consequence of this is coming out on the highway a few hundred yards down the road from the trail-head sign.
